Frightening. Imagine being persecuted AND having to face the possibility of catching West Nile Virus? The creepy Ontario experience...
Toronto Public Health has confirmed some mosquitos in the city have tested positive for West Nile virus, but say the risk of infection is low if precautions are taken.
The findings mark the first positive cases this year after results came back on three batches of mosquitos collected in the city, the public health agency said in a news release on Friday.
West Nile virus is transmitted to humans from the bites of infected mosquitos.
